Eating Las Vegas has just learned that one of our favorite chefs — Jean-David Groff-Daudet — is no longer at Garfield’s.

We wish David bonne chance in finding a position at a restaurant that’s worthy of his talents — which Garfields’s never was.

And we at ELV will no longer feel guilty about avoiding his former restaurant — that never allowed him to cook the food he is best at (classic, Burgundian and bistro French cooking), opting instead for a generic, all-over-the-map menu of mediocrity (not JDGD’s fault, but highly avoidable just the same).

Good luck David, and let’s us know when, once again, we can taste your pot au feu!
